Psalms 78:64 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.

Ver. 64. Their priests fell by the sword] Hophni and Phineas did, 1 Samuel 4:11, both in one day, as had been foretold, 1 Samuel 2:34 .

And their widows made no lamentation] As being themselves either killed with grief, as Phineas's wife, or carried captive. Here were ingentia beneficia, flagitia, supplicia.
